A-COLD-WALL* Rebuilds New Converse Silhouettes

Following recent Nike collaborations, A-COLD-WALL* have linked up with Converse to design new models in the usual ACW* reconstructed look. The first style resembles Converse’s iconic Chuck Taylor All Star due to the high-top cut and ubiquitous rubber toe cap. However, it’s been upgraded with an aggressive cleated rubber sole and raised midsole walls, in conjunction with durable ripstop nylon uppers and half ghillie, half speed hook lacing.

The second silhouette isn’t a typical offering from Converse, bearing resemblance to other mid-height, ankle-strapped sneakers. As seen in two colourways, a mixed smooth leather and suede upper uses neutral earth and grey tones with subtle ACW* stamping on the lateral forefoot. Underneath is a cleanly finished rubber cupsole.

That’s all for now, but hopefully more images and info emerges – especially a release date to come. Stay tuned at SF.
